First and foremost, talking from my past experiences, I just want to highlight that nowadays, there are so much unscrupulous garages, mechanics in London, who often tend to deceive women drivers with various rip off tactics. Car Technics, certainly lives up to their reputation as courteous, trustworthy and thorough. I made my decision to check out Car Technics, based on the reviews I read, which of course gave me complete assurance and peace of mind that my experience with this company would be a satisfactory one. I met Daniel for the first time who was very pleasant to talk to and after explaining the issues I had, and by him taking my car for a test drive, he had an inclination of what the problem was, which he later on confirmed by carrying out a thorough diagnostic test on my vehicle. He even took the time to discuss in great detail the cause of this problem, his observations from his diagnosis, the condition my car was in, the work which was required and the disadvantages of not giving this prompt attention. As a result of this, I know that my vehicle is in good hands. My vehicle is currently undergoing the repair process. I will give another update on completion.

I chose to go with Car Technic to get a full service done after reading the great reviews on this site, and I can confirm that they definitely live up to their reputation. Met Daniel in the morning when I dropped off the car, who was very friendly and professional, provided me with a very reasonable and competitive quote, kept me updated, and I got the car back on the same day in immaculate condition! Definitely recommended.

Car Technic and Daniel were hands-down the most amazing experience I've had with a garage. He was highly professional, very prompt and such a pleasure to deal with. The car came back amazingly clean and he really went the extra mile. I can not recommend Daniel highly enough. He might be the only honest car guy in the whole country!

van, BMW 5 Series

Had an issue with my petrol engine sounding like a diesel, requested through here and was given a call by the garage we spoke about the issue and he had a rough idea of what it was, once i got there they knew instantly what the problem was and confirmed the price and also worked on a deadline that i set, car is running great now and couldnt recommend them enough, even offered to get the Car washed for me but it was raining heavy so there was no point. Overall great friendly guys, solid work, would go to them again

Paul was excellent.
I'm always a bit wary with new garages, but was put at ease immediately and felt that he was going to do a good job which was to change the cambelt and replace the starter motor. and at last minute, put in a brand new battery due to me not telling an important piece of information, which explains the final price and happily paid for an excellent job and customer service.
I would definitely use this garage for all future jobs.
Thank you, Paul!

What is a clutch?

The clutch is the device that connects your car's engine to its gearbox (and, thus, to the wheels.) It is engaged or disengaged to allow you to change gear. You need one because your engine spins all the time, but your wheels do not. The clutch gives you the ability to disconnect the engine from the gearbox and wheels.

+

How does a clutch work?

In a car's clutch, a flywheel connects to the engine, and a clutch plate connects to the transmission. When your foot is off the clutch pedal, the flywheel and clutch plate are pressed together, connecting the engine to the gearbox, and they spin at the same speed. When the pedal is pressed, the plate and flywheel are disconnected, allowing you to change gear.

+

Can a clutch be repaired?

That depends on what the issue is. If the clutch plate is worn - usually indicated by a 'slipping' clutch or tough - gearchange, it needs to be replaced. However it may be that the issue can be resolved by nothing more than adjusting the clutch cable. A garage will be able to tell.

+

How long does a clutch last?

Your clutch is a 'wear part' and relies on friction to work, which means that it IS designed to wear over time and will eventually need replacing - typically after around 7 years. However lots of city driving, 'riding' the clutch, or aggressive acceleration will wear a clutch faster.

+

What is a 'Dual Mass Flywheel?

A 'Dual Mass Flywheel' or 'DMF' has its flywheel in two parts, designed to reduce diesel engine vibrations and transmission 'shunt' when changing gear. The two pieces are glued together but any degradation of that compound can lead to difficulties, such as rough running.

+

How much does Clutch Repair cost?

This depends on your vehicle: while the clutch itself is typically not expensive, time and care is required in removing, replacing and testing a clutch. Some cars' clutches are harder to access than others, increasing the labour hours involved.

What is a Clutch?

The Clutch is the part of your car engine which is responsible for engaging and disengaging the power transmission.

It’s a vital part of an engine and is essentially there to connect two parts of the system that can’t make a car move unless they're connected. Clutches engage and disengage two rotating shafts which then allow your car to move.

Because they play this role within the engine system, they naturally wear down over time as the parts are in constant friction with each other.

How can you tell if your clutch needs repairing?

There are a huge variety of problems that can occur with a clutch and there are a number of symptoms that you should look out for which would point towards certain issues.

Slipping Clutch

Slipping is one of the most common clutch issues and can cause a drop in performance, as well as damage, if not diagnosed in time.

The things you need to watch out for are;

Your car struggles to move forward while moving at a low speed in a high gear.

Your car struggles to get up hills in a high gear

Your car struggles to accelerate or finds it difficult to tow a trailer

The problem with a slipping clutch is that it will only get worse as time goes on. Slippage increases the heat generated in between the two shafts and the hotter this area becomes the less able it is to maintain its grip, therefore increasing the slippage. The greater the slippage the greater the heat generated.

So it’s clear to see that this is an issue that will only get worse if left without attention.

Clutch Chatter

Chattering occurs when the clutch is being used and a grabbing or jerking can be felt in the vehicle.
